Okay, so as we approach the 10-month mark, I've actually entered an interesting lull in my planning life, but that aside, I have made some big check in the past few weeks.
Last week, we put the deposit down on the florist and I can't even begin to tell you how excited about that I am. I'm getting my flowers for $330! I got a really good coupon from a bridal fair and who can say no to a fabulous and normally out-of-my-budget-priced florist for less than $350?!
And today, we put the deposit down on the photographer! It's honestly the biggest purchase I have made in my life, and it was just the deposit! yikes! But I think it'll be worth it in the long run. For having caviar taste on a triscuit budget, this photographer is a really good deal! I'm really excited. They aren't cheap, but both my FI and I agreed that photography is something we wanted to splurge on.
I'm definitely doing things out of order, if TK's checklist is to be believed but just getting these things finalized has been like pulling teeth between me, my parents, FI, and FILs. There's a lot to be said for having 6 people with very different opinions on value. But as FI and I are paying for the photographer, my parents and FIL's kind of lost that battle.
Anywho... It was just a bright bit of sunshine in my otherwise gloomy week.
Happy Planning everyone!
